Karmaterror 982 Posted August 31, 2013 Im a big fan of creating custom scenarios in the arma 2 editor. and would love to be able to do the same in dayz SA. Just a simple set of tools would do. as now, the ability to place structures fortifications and so on. Then as far as zombies go we would just need something like "zombie spawn point" marker, could be tweaked for number and rate of zeds. As normal they would wonder...unless we added a "zombie attack location" marker, this could make the zeds instantly rush towards that pos on spawn. With just these 2 tools we could create epic survival type scenarios, or just 1 place on the map with an incredible number of zombies. Rocket's success with dayz is mostly due to the fact that BIS mad an extremely versatile game that could be highly edited. Without arma 2 there would be no dayz This mentality should be passed on in dayz SA. Sorry if this has already been done....searched "editor" and alls I found was about map editing (making new maps completly) :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AP_Norris 1018 Posted September 1, 2013 I like it, it would be great for special server events if you could find non corrupt admins.Keeping the game fun.You could have a random friendly UN convoy come in from the north, they will shoot zombies and only shoot when shot at.

And we all know Hell has to freeze before that happens...not with the SA i guess since thy want equal gaming for everyone. You could have a random friendly UN convoy come in from the north, they will shoot zombies and only shoot when shot at. As the game goes atm they would run out of ammo in no time. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As the game goes atm they would run out of ammo in no time.I'm fine with them chewing through ammo they're not as use to the sight of zombies as the players so they can keep their regular trigger happy mechanics and run out of ammo in ten minutes, then its you helping them out :)They can has their white cars with UN on the hood and get out with their M4s and be all pew pew pew and then you can go up and say hi and travel with them in their safety convoy.

Sorry if this has already been done....searched "editor" and alls I found was about map editing (making new maps completly) :)The main issue we have with using arma2 as a base is the modding ability. Arma was designed to be very flexible in this regard, and that's also why it's so easy to cheat on it. I doubt that there will be "much" in term of modding on DayZ because there is a lot of things from the arma engine that need to be bolted shut. And saying that DayZ should have modding because it wouldn't have existed without it is a non argument. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lady Kyrah 1110 Posted September 1, 2013 You could have a random friendly UN convoy come in from the north, they will shoot zombies and only shoot when shot at.Why is it that so many people assume that the entire world isn't gone to shit? It's pretty clear it has. There is no UN, or military to save the people, they are all dead or turned to looting like everyone else. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No...i meant the UN forces would run out of ammo shooting back at the players because they want the weapons and ammo they carry. I don't think players would cooperate with them even if you could script it. Edited September 1, 2013 by Enforcer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
